This piece depicts a moment of deep contemplations in time. A state of deep thoughts and absent mindedness. It is a visual expression of a part of the things I see in my society, represented in a stylized form.
It captures an unknown moment, a time when the mind is bothered or a time when the mind starts thinking of a solution to hard life and manual labour
A moment of reflection, where the question – what next? comes up.
This piece is from my ongoing body of work titled hustle, and it sheds light on hard labour which is a means of livelihood to lots of people. In my city, young boys run after buses with their wheelbarrow just to help passengers carry loads and they survive on that everyday till they find something better. If they ever find something better. This work is meant to connect my audience to the everyday life they see but ignore. It is also meant to create an awareness that a life like this exists.

From Zia with Love By Wole Soyinka (Hardcover)
Seller: GrammyBooks“Unquestionably Africa’s most versatile writer and arguably one of her finest.” (New York Times Book Review) When the Military decrees that a crime carrying a prison sentence now retroactively warrants summary execution, confusion and fear permeate a society where the brutality and injustice of military rule is parodied by life inside prison. Based on events in Nigeria in the early 1980s Wole Soyinka’s stage play From Zia with Love and radio play A Scourge of Hyacinths, were produced in the early 90s when the writer was exiled by Sani Abacha’s notorious and unjust military regime.
